AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WICHITA KS
1245 PM CDT THU MAY 22 2014

...UPDATED FOR 18Z AVIATION DISCUSSION...

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 303 AM CDT THU MAY 22 2014

SOUTHWEST FLOW CONTINUES TO PUMP COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE INTO THE PLAINS. THIS MOISTURE RICH SW FLOW WILL CONTINUE
OVER MOST OF THE PLAINS INTO THE WEEKEND...AS A SLOW MOVING UPPER
LOW CURRENTLY OVER THE SW US MOVES ACROSS THE SOUTHERN ROCKIES AND
EVENTUALLY INTO THE PLAINS BY SUN NIGHT INTO MON. THE UPPER LOW WILL
GRADUALLY MOVE EAST ACROSS THE PLAINS STATES FOR MON INTO
TUE...LEADING TO A WET STRETCH OF DAYS FOR THE PLAINS.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY THROUGH SATURDAY)
ISSUED AT 303 AM CDT THU MAY 22 2014

TODAY-TONIGHT: SOUTHERLY LOW LEVEL JET AND MOISTURE TRANSPORT HAS
LED TO CONVECTION CONTINUING OVER PORTIONS OF NORTH CENTRAL KS.
CURRENT STORM MOTION WIND PROGS SUGGEST THIS COMPACT MESOSCALE
CONVECTIVE SYSTEM WILL SLOWLY MOVE TO THE NE-EAST AS THE MORNING
PROGRESSES...JUST SKIRTING THE CENTRAL PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST
AREA. THINK MOST OF THE CONVECTION WILL WANE AS THE LATE MORNING
CONTINUES AS A WEAK SHORTWAVE CURRENTLY MOVING ACROSS SW KS LIFTS
TO THE NE.

THINK MOST OF THE MIDDAY AND EARLY AFTERNOON HOURS WILL REMAIN DRY
AS SUBSIDENCE IN THE WAKE OF THIS WRN KS SHORTWAVE MOVES OVER THE
AREA.  BUT AS LATE AFTERNOON HEATING INCREASES...THINK CONVECTIVE
CHANCES WILL INCREASE FOR MOST OF CENTRAL AND SOUTH CENTRAL KS...
TOWARDS EVENING...AS MOST OF THE AREA WILL BE IN A WEAKLY CAPPED
MODERATELY UNSTABLE AIRMASS. THINK BEST CHANCE FOR INITIAL
THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT WILL BE ALONG THE REMNANTS OF THE QUASI
STATIONARY BOUNDARY AND OUTFLOW BOUNDARY EXPECTED TO BE LOCATED OVER
CENTRAL KS. CONVERGENCE ALONG THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY MAY INCREASE LATE
THIS AFTERNOON...AS THE OUTFLOW REINFORCES THE CONVERGENCE. THE
MODERATELY UNSTABLE AIRMASS COULD LEAD TO A FEW STRONG TO SEVERE
STORMS EARLY THIS EVENING WITH MLCAPE VALUES EXPECTED TO BE AROUND
1500-1800 J/KG.  NOT EXPECTING WIDESPREAD ORGANIZED SEVERE STORMS AS
BULK SHEAR OF 20-30 KTS WILL LEAD TO MARGINAL SEVERE STORMS.

THINK MOST OF THE CONVECTION THAT CAN DEVELOP FURTHER SOUTH...OVER
SOUTH CENTRAL KS...WILL BE DIURNALLY DRIVEN AND WANE LATE IN THE
EVENING. BUT COULD SEE SOME OF THE CONVECTION ACROSS CENTRAL KS
LINGER INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS...AS THE SOUTHERLY LOW LEVEL JET
INCREASES AND 850-700H MOISTURE TRANSPORT INCREASES SOME.  NOT
EXPECTING STORMS TO TURN INTO A MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE COMPLEX (MCS)
AS THE LOW LEVEL JET ISN'T PROGGED TO BE THAT STRONG.

FRI-SAT: THE GENERAL TREND FOR FRI INTO SAT WILL BE A GRADUAL
INCREASE IN THUNDERSTORM CHANCES EACH AFTERNOON AND EVENING AS LOW
LEVEL MOISTURE REMAINS HIGH WITH A WEAKLY CAPPED ENVIRONMENT IN
PLACE. THIS WILL LEAD TO CONVECTION DEVELOPING ALMOST ANYWHERE
ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA BOTH AFTERNOONS...AS THE STATIONARY
BOUNDARY FROM TODAY BECOMES DIFFUSE OR WASHES OUT. COULD CONTINUE
TO SEE SOME STRONG STORMS GIVEN THE MODERATE INSTABILITY...BUT THE
THREAT OF ORGANIZED SEVERE WEATHER APPEARS LOW AS BULK SHEAR IS
MINIMAL. LACK OF STRONG SHEAR ALOFT...MAY LEAD TO SLOW MOVING
STORMS...WHICH COULD LEAD TO SOME LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL.

HAVE GENERALLY WENT MIDDLE OF THE ROAD ON THE FORECAST TEMPERATURES.
LIKELY WILL SEE SOME SIGNIFICANT ERRORS BOTH WAYS...WITH EXTENSIVE
CLOUDS RESULTING IN COOLER TEMPERATURES...AND AFTERNOON HEATING
ALLOWING TEMPERATURES TO SOAR.

KETCHAM

.LONG TERM...(SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY)
ISSUED AT 303 AM CDT THU MAY 22 2014

PRECIPITATION CHANCES SHOULD INCREASE SUN-MON AS THE MAIN UPPER LOW
IN THE SRN ROCKIES MOVES INTO THE PLAINS. THE MEDIUM RANGE MODELS
ARE IN SOMEWHAT OF A AGREEMENT IN TAKING THE MAIN UPPER LOW STRAIGHT
EAST ACROSS THE PLAINS FOR SUN NIGHT THROUGH TUE. COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF
LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WILL STILL BE AROUND AS THIS BROAD AREA OF LIFT
MOVES ACROSS THE AREA...WITH WIDELY SCATTERED SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED.  EXPECT THE SHOWERS TO BE MORE NUMEROUS
DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS WHEN HEATING WILL BE
MAXIMIZED.  PRECIPITATION SHOULD WANE BY LATE TUE ONCE UPPER SYSTEM
MOVES INTO THE OZARKS. DEPENDING ON THE RAINFALL OVER THE WEEKEND...
MAY SEE TEMPERATURES WARM A BIT MORE ON WED.

KETCHAM

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z FRIDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 1230 PM CDT THU MAY 22 2014

A LINE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS EXTENDED ACROSS PORTIONS OF
CENTRAL AND SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS. THIS LINE WAS MOVING SLOWLY
EASTWARD ACROSS THE AREA AND WILL IMPACT KICT BETWEEN 1830Z AND
1915Z WITH TRANSIENT MVFR CIGS OR LOWER BRIEFLY POSSIBLE. AN
OUTFLOW BOUNDARY WAS ALSO MOVING SOUTH ACROSS SOUTHEAST KANSAS AND
MAY PROVIDE AN ADDITIONAL FOCUS FOR DEEP MOIST CONVECTION DURING
THE AFTERNOON HOURS POSSIBLY IMPACTING KCNU. WE'RE EXPECTING A
LULL IN THE ACTIVITY BEHIND THIS LINE BEFORE ADDITIONAL SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS APPROACH FROM THE HIGH PLAINS AFTER 04-05Z.
UNCERTAINTY REMAINS IN HOW FAR EAST THE STORMS WILL SURVIVE BEFORE
DIMINISHING AFTER 07-09Z.
